What Roy Rutherford doesn't like about El Progreso Mexican:
The restaurant does not display prices and charges a $2 fee for credit card payments without prior notice. The food quality was average. I could have chosen a better place for the prices charged. I will not be returning to this restaurant. Disappointing. View all feedback. What Kirti Nagi likes about El Progreso Mexican:
Today my mom and I came to this restaurant to eat Mexican food. Today was happy Mother?s Day for Mexican moms. So I brought my mom and we both agreed that the food and service was great. I eat a torta (Mexican sandwich) and I very happy to say it was a real torta. For the first time in 5 years I had a real Mexican torta that reminds be for my beloved land Mexico. I really recommend this place to all. View all feedback.

Their burritos are awesome. El Progreso is one of the little places we love to frequent. They make corn tortillas on the weekend.
